Fix on pull request: nothing to commit, working tree clean

[anthony-steele-cko]

I am seeing similar to the nothing to commit, working tree clean issue here: #10 (comment), and it does not seem to be due to line-ending settings

I made a PR, with the config file similar to given there, and also added extra spaces to a code file, so that the format would have something to fix.
The result is that it is formatted on the format step,
and this is followed by "nothing to commit, working tree clean" at the commit step

My format.yml file is as follows:

name: Format check on pull request
on: pull_request
jobs:
  dotnet-format:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout repo
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
        with:
          ref: ${{ github.head_ref }}

      - name: Add dotnet-format problem matcher
        uses: xt0rted/dotnet-format-problem-matcher@v1

      - name: Restore dotnet tools
        uses: xt0rted/dotnet-tool-restore@v1

      - name: Run dotnet format
        id: format
        uses: xt0rted/dotnet-format@v1
        with:
          repo-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
          action: "fix"
          only-changed-files: true

      - name: Commit files
        if: steps.format.outputs.has-changes == 'true'
        run: |
          git config --local user.name "github-actions[bot]"
          git config --local user.email "41898282+github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com"
          git commit -a -m 'Automated dotnet-format update

          Co-authored-by: ${{ github.event.pull_request.user.login }} <${{ github.event.pull_request.user.id }}+${{ github.event.pull_request.user.login }}@users.noreply.github.com>'

      - name: Push changes
        if: steps.format.outputs.has-changes == 'true'
        uses: ad-m/github-push-action@v0.5.0
        with:
          github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
          branch: ${{ github.head_ref }}

ordering is different to here because we now use the .config\dotnet-tools.json file to specify which tools need to be installed, and that's only present after checkout.

All working if I change line 20 to
uses: jfversluis/dotnet-format@v1.0.4

Is there a way to run with --fix-style or --fix-analyzers? It would be useful to enforce style as well as just the whitespace

@Hona I'm working on a new release that adds support for dotnet-format v4 and v5 which will include these new options. I'm expecting to release it sometime this week.
